Support I call out to you and you are never there? Is your world so well defined that you can not find the time to make me feel special? I am sure you have enjoyed moments of true pleasure thinking about me and how much I care about you. Thinking of the time we spent holding eachother in romantic nights and conversations based on love. Is this not what we want in life` too feel appreciated and cared about by the one we love? I think it is, and yet for some of us’ we do not realize the needs of our partner and get angry that they must feel left out when we feel fine. Is it so much to ask your friends to call? When times are hard, we call those we trust to give us a helpful word and an encouraging emotion. If we are honest, we will realize that it does not take too much to help our friends` and that if we are honest, we should always be willing to be there for them. We are confused when they tell us that they feel neglected, as if we do not understand why they feel neglected? A friendship is based on open and concerned communication, not indifference and selfish agendas. Do we fail to understand what makes good and happy emotions? Can we not see that by avoiding the ones we care about that we alienate them? Is using someone for emotional and sexual gratification our only enjoyment of the relationship? If you can not see that the one you care about needs to hear from you more than just at your convenience, you belittle their worth and the amount of effort they have put into the friendship. I do not make rules for my friends; I accept them as they are. I do not hide my friends from my other friends, I work to help everyone get know the other. Yet you treat me as an outcast and think you are doing me a favor by saying you’re my friend, yet you never do the things` that real friends do. How do you justify such indifference to one who has shared emotional intimacy? By hurting me, do you think you are free not to be hurt? Is it that hard for you to have concern about my needs? You live in a shallow reflection when it comes to understanding the plight of the one you shared closeness. You blame me for not hanging in there and get angry that I demand more than just bread crumbs of affection... Material gifts are fine, but we all need someone we can depend on. When we need to talk, we need to know that person will return our call… You leave your phone on the hook. You smile that they have called, but you do not realize your responsibility to being mature and calling back. You blame them for the failure of this close relationship, yet you never offered to listen? It is open and shared communication that develops intimacy; it is indifference and aloofness that eventually kills it.
